Axar.az informs “I have officially invited the President of Turkiye to participate in the EPC summit in Yerevan. I hope that President Erdogan will accept the invitation and attend,” he said while answering questions from participants at the “Building Peace and Multilateral Cooperation” forum in Yerevan on Tuesday.

According to him, Armenia has an institutional and ongoing connection with both Azerbaijan and Turkiye, and relations between Armenia and Turkiye “are on the right track.”
